I believe the URL is www.sourceretrieval.com.
I have used their service/software at a client who lost about a dozen
sources members prior to doing a Y2K project.  The price for the initial
few decompiles is a bit steep, but if you have a bunch it is worth the
dollars, and certainly less expensive than recoding the program.  I believe
they can also decompile programs that have observability turned off.
